Abstract

Recently, the use of augmented reality in clinical environments has been increasing. Volume rendering is very useful in medical applications for visualizing volume data such as CT and MRI data. In this paper, we propose a real-time volume rendering that runs on AR glasses with limited computational power. In the proposed method, we introduce a new volume data structure based on the concept of level of detail (LOD).
